I wanted to play around with Drupal 8. I often use WAMP and I have also install XAMP. They both work well. WAMP can be a tougher install in my opinion especially on Windows 10.

During my Drupal install I ran into Mod_Rewrite, OPCach and XDebug settings that needed to be corrected before the install would complete. I found the following video on YouTube that solved my issues perfectly.
